- Interlibrary Loan Training Manual. Kaufman, David, Ed. Instructional Materials Interlibrary Loans Library Cooperation Library Materials Library Networks Public Libraries Records (Forms) Records Management Shared Library Resources State Programs This manual is designed to provide information to interlibrary loan (ILL) practitioners about the philosophy behind interlibrary loan, as well as a functional knowledge of its routines. The first part of the manual presents general and background material about interlibrary loans. Included in this section are a glossary of library terms, the responsibilities of borrowing and lending libraries, information about ILL copyright, costs associated with ILL, and ILL codes, i.e., a set of rules which govern the borrowing and lending activities of interlibrary loan. The second section describes the basic steps necessary to secure a typical loan, including the ILL interview, and presents examples of appropriate forms and descriptions for record keeping and ILL etiquette. Also included in this section are a list of suppliers of library materials and a discussion of ILL administration. Appendixes present information about the Access Pennsylvania Database and provide a sample Access Pennsylvania borrowing form, an in-house request form, an American Library Association (ALA) ILL request form, and a sample filled request. A selected bibliography concludes the manual. (MAB)
